Deleting 0 Ko pdf files in windows 7 64bits ?
« on: July 04, 2013, 09:42 AM »
Hello,

In a big folder and its subfolders, I have among other files thousands of small pdf files that have in fact a size of 0 ko.
Do you know a way to delete those ?  (bonus: and delete the folder if it becomes empty after that?).

Thanks in advance ;)

Sorry,
I have solved this with the freeware "everything". http://www.voidtools.com/ ; (search in the big folder + keyword ".pdf" and rank by size. then delete all the zero ko files at once). ;)
See you

I'm totally sure that it can be done using Windows' own Windows Explorer.

By the way, what does "Ko" stand for? I've never seen anyone using that unit.

Hello,
Thanks.
Ko means "kilooctet (Ko)" ! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octet_%28computing%29
